Popup input-form on focus
 

Dear All,

How can i get a popup input-form when the cell has the focus or with a
shotcut.
I want to insert several lines of text in a small cel.
The cell must stay small on the sheet because it is rarely used .

Thanks,

Filip

Popup input-form on focus
 

Put this behind the sheet you wish to control. The cell actioned is set by
the the line "If Target.Column = 1 And Target.Row = 1 Then" change the
values to suit your needs. Currently it is set to Cell A1. If you change the
line to "If Target.Column = 1 Then" only then all cells in column 1 will
trigger this action.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Column = 1 And Target.Row = 1 Then
ActiveCell.Value = InputBox("Enter Text", "Small CellText Editor",
ActiveCell.Value)
End If
End Sub

Filip,

Go into the code for the sheet you want to edit (right click on the sheet
from within the VBA editor).

Then you can use something like this:-

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

If Target.Address = "$C$1" Then
Application.Run "Filter_Document"

Else
' Range("F10").Value = False
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True


End Sub

For this example, when a change is recognised in cell C1 it runs the macro
Filter_Document. With this you have to press enter for the macro to run.

Some-one else may be able to tell you if there is a way to run a macro when
you click on a cell.
